An entire PS5 now costs less than 64GB of DDR5 memory, even after a discount — simple memory kit jumps to $600 due to DRAM shortage, and it's expected to get worse into 2026

    Fuck AI. There is a use case for simple apps like chatgpt.

    But, for most things you don’t need AI. Things like chat support for product/services, vibe coded app/website. Its all crap.

      The use case for those is doing what we could do on the internet 15 years ago ourselves but it has been so bastardised that it is too inconvenient now.

        What was even used for the fake videos before AI? Blender? I legitimately don’t know and would like to know.

      Can’t really remember the last time it wasn’t a horrible time to build a PC.

    People are panicking but market will correct itself. RAM is basically a solved technology and supply is limited by lack of factories not ability to manufacture.

      On the other hand, we’re currently in the midst of what many people already consider to be an AI bubble, so investing in new DRAM factories might be considered too risky, since the bubble might have popped before it even gets production going.

      Fabs take like 5 years to spin up. No one is going to set up another without some kind of guarantee
